Stimulates Dogs and Keeps Them Busy
In his brand new book, Mon chien est heureux (my dog is happy), vet and canine behaviouralist Joel Dehasse explains that dogs are genetically programmed to have a specific job and inactivity leads to behavioural issues and psychosomatic disorders. Dogs need an average 6 hours of activity each day, but this may vary from 3 to 10 hours depending on the breed and the individual energy level within the breed. Dogs need different types of activities: feeding, hunting, social, vocal, locomotor, chewing, playing, intellectual, etc.
If the animal is not able to meet these different needs, he could develop one or several behavioural problems. It is important to give your animal the opportunity to perform various activities each day. If your pet spends an hour a day barking or gnawing on the table legs, he is probably lacking stimulation. If you provide a variety of structured activities, it is very likely that the undesirable behaviour will diminish. If your animal spends 30 minutes to an hour a day eating instead of wolfing his food down in 5 minutes, he will have met a large part of his daily activity needs and will be less likely to destroy the couch or dig holes in your backyard. Is your dog happy?
A System that Meets Your Pet's Needs
Making mealtime an intellectual activity is very positive and stimulating for your pet since he will need to use his senses to hunt for his meal and is rewarded when he succeeds.
Educational Games
The Aikiou bowl can also be used for educational and interactive games both pet and owner can enjoy. Simply hide food rewards in the compartments and encourage your pet to find them.

Clark Winter Course Series Continues with "Paul Revere and American Decorative Arts" December 7
For Immediate Release
November 22, 2005
To coincide with the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute's current exhibitions Winslow Homer: Making Art, Making History and Hail to the Chiefs, this year's winter course, "American Beauties," will explore the themes of American painting and decorative art during the 18th- and 19th-centuries. Danielle Steinmann, assistant curator of education, will lead the Wednesday, December 7 lecture on "Paul Revere and American Decorative Arts" highlighting the trends and enduring classics in American silver, textiles, glass, and furniture, from the mundane to the sublime. This series of auditorium lectures, held on the first Wednesday of the month November through February at 1 pm, is open to the public. Cost per lecture is $6 ($4 for members). No reservations are needed, however, those wishing to pre-register may call 413-458-0563.
In addition to the Clark's collections of 19th-century French art, European and American paintings and sculpture, Old Master prints and drawings, and early photographs, the Institute has significant holdings of decorative arts. The Clark is also home to important American silver from the collection of the late Henry Morris Burrows and his wife Elizabeth H. Burrows. Among the master silversmiths whose work is featured are Paul Revere II, Jacob Hurd, Myer Myers, and Joseph and Nathaniel Richardson. The Clark's American furniture, a gift from the estate of the late Florence Cluett Chambers, is from one of the country's most notable collections of American Federal furniture, the collection of Mr. and Mrs. George Alfred Cluett.
Steinmann will also give the third lecture, "Americans Abroad: Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent, and William Merrit Chase," on January 4. Michael Cassin, curator of education, will close the series with "East is East and West is West: Paintings by Winslow Homer and Frederic Remington" on February 1.

PFT Extra: Can the game be made safer?
Terrelle Pryor to play a different position? Not so fast says John Schneider
The Seattle Seahawks made a somewhat curious decision to trade for Oakland Raiders quarterback Terrelle Pryor on Monday.
Seattle sent their seventh-round draft pick, No. 247 overall, to the Raiders in exchange for Pryor. It's the last tradable pick of the entire draft and the remaining selections are compensatory picks that cannot be dealt. It was a minimal investment for a player the Raiders intended to release before the start of their offseason workout program.
Seahawks general manger John Schneider joined Bruce Murray and Rich Gannon on Sirius XM NFL Radio to discuss why the team elected to bring Pryor to Seattle.
"We're always trying to improve competition at every position and we saw this as an opportunity to do that," Schneider said. "Rare athlete, size and speed. …We're just excited about his upside and the type of athlete that he is. We knew that if he was released (by Oakland) there was no way we were going to have an opportunity to claim him."
Basically, Seattle's thought process was that they couldn't get an athlete of Pryor's caliber with the 247th pick anyway, so why not take a shot?
Seattle appeared to be mostly set at quarterback. Russell Wilson is entering the third year of his four-year rookie contract and the team re-signed backup Tarvaris Jackson to a fully guaranteed one-year deal that will pay more than both Wilson and Pryor are set to make next season. It led to a thought that Pryor may be earmarked as a player that may be asked to play a position other than quarterback.
Schneider said that speculation may be a little premature.
"We haven't had those conversations," Schneider said. "But if there was ever an athlete that would be able to play a slash role, if you will, it would be this kind of player. That may a little bit fantasy football at this time of the year. He's a quarterback. He's been a quarterback, but no we haven't gotten into that. This guy is a very talented athlete and we can't wait to put our hands on him and have our staff spend some time with him."
For now, Pryor will be of an experiment with Seattle. He'll join B.J. Daniels as the quarterbacks behind Wilson and Jackson's on Seattle's roster.
Doug Marrone recently had cancerous mole removed
Bills coach Doug Marrone has disclosed that he recently had a cancerous mole removed from his skin.
"During a recent doctor's visit, it was discovered that I had a cancerous mole on my skin, which has since been removed," Marrone said in a statement posted on the team's website. "The only follow up required is to have my moles checked every three months and that basically is the end of the story. The recent extraction procedure will have no effect on my ability to coach the team moving forward."
Marrone, 49, did not specify the location of the mole or the type of cancer, which was discovered during a recent doctor's visit. Some forms of skin cancer, like basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, are very treatable, if caught early. Even the most serious form of skin cancer, melanoma, can be cured if detected and treated before it spreads.
Jim Johnson, former Eagles defensive coordinator, died due to melanoma in 2009 at the age of 68.
Marrone's situation serves as an important reminder to examine all skin at least once per month for any abnormal moles or growths. Ask your doctor to do a skin examination during check-ups and physicals. And be sure to get any suspicious areas checked as soon as possible by a dermatologist.
As my dermatologist said in January after slicing from my leg a small growth that turned out to be benign, "A little paranoia can save your patients' lives."
Kony Ealy says he is the best defensive end in the draft
South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney is widely considered the top defensive line prospect in the NFL Draft. Clowney could even be selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft.
However, another pass rusher from the SEC believes he is the best defensive end in this year's draft class.
According to Tom Pelissero of the USA Today, Missouri defensive end Kony Early says that he believes he is the best at the position in this year's draft class.
"I feel like I'm the best guy in this draft, period," Ealy said. "And that's not a cocky thing — that's just a confidence thing. It's not just talk. It's been proven. My numbers show for it. My size and speed and agility show for it. What else can you want?"
Ealy is also considered to be a first round selection and did produce more statistically than Clowney did last season. Ealy had 9.5 sacks for the Tigers while Clowney posted just three sacks for South Carolina. However, college production doesn't necessarily equate to the highest projection when it comes to the NFL.
Nevertheless, Ealy is still extremely confident in his own abilities.
"There's no knocking [Clowney]," Ealy said. "But I'm the best defensive end in this draft. I may not have a whole lot of hype, but I don't [need] anybody to acknowledge me."
Gil Brandt suggests draft-and-trade scenario for Texans at No. 1
Ten years after the Chargers made Eli Manning the first pick in the draft and then shipped him to the Giants for Philip Rivers plus more, a similar strategy could be unfolding in 16 nights at Radio City Music Hall.
Gil Brandt of NFL.com suggests that the Texans could take defensive end Jadeveon Clowney with the first overall selection, and then trade him to a team that takes a predetermined player with its own first-round pick.
The approach makes much more sense than the Texans trading down to a specific spot before the draft, since that would invite speculation from other teams regarding the player the Texans would target, along with a possible leapfrogging of the Texans. By taking then trading Clowney, the Texans would more likely to get the guy they want later, since the team that takes the player the Texans would pick may not be expected to pick that player.
Appearing on Tuesday's PFT Live, John McClain of the Houston Chronicle explained that, in his view, the Texans will take Clowney or quarterback Johnny Manziel with the first overall pick. If they decide on Manziel and if Manziel remains in play until the team to which Clowney would be traded can get him, the Texans would emerge with Manziel plus more.
And if the team that would trade for Clowney can't get the other player the Texans want, the Texans presumably would keep Clowney — or possibly trade him to someone else for a different package.

Bills website posts, then deletes, article announcing that coach Doug Marrone has cancer
In an unusual development that the team has not yet explained, the Bills website posted on Tuesday an article with the following headline: "Coach Marrone announces he has cancer."
The article, which consisted of two sentences and then a spot for a quote from Marrone, said that the unspecific cancer is "not aggrive [sic]" and "highly treatable."
Attributed to Anna Stolzenburg in a screen shot posted by Deadspin, the link that previously contained the article currently is blank.
Media publications routinely prepare content in advance of an event that is expected or likely. While it's possible someone was simply playing an extremely unfunny prank, it's also possible that the team was preparing to disclose that Marrone is fighting a highly treatable form of cancer.
One way or the other, the Bills need to address the situation, sooner than later.
UPDATE 11:13 p.m. ET: Marrone has disclosed that he recently had a cancerous mole removed.
Woodley declares Raiders to be a playoff team
It's still 0-0 time in the NFL, with every fan of every team able to conjure hope for the coming season, plausible or otherwise. Raiders fans, already buoyed by an aggressive pursuit of veteran free agents, got more reason for hope on Tuesday from one of the new arrivals.
"I can definitely see [us] as a playoff team," linebacker LaMarr Woodley told 95.7 The Game on Tuesday. "Last year going back and watching some film on the Raiders, there were a lot of opportunities here where they just didn't close it out. Some games good in the first half; they just didn't close it out at the end of the game. So now we just have to learn how to close out games and it'll be more wins than losses."
The Raiders closed it out against Woodley's old team, the Steelers. Otherwise, the Raiders had plenty of struggles.
This year's potential struggles become a lot more tangible on Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET. Though the Raiders' opponents for 2014 have been known since the moment the 2013 regular season ended, the specific list of weeks and dates and times comes soon.
Perhaps that's when Raiders players and fans will realize that, in 2014, the Raiders play three games against last year's Super Bowl teams. Five games against the four conference finalists. Nine games against teams that made the playoffs in 2013.
And 12 games against teams with non-losing records a season ago.
That's the end result of facing the Broncos twice, the Chiefs twice, the Chargers twice, the Seahawks, the 49ers, the Patriots, the Cardinals, the Rams, the Jets, the Bills, the Rams, the Dolphins, and the Browns.
Yes, every year is different. For the Raiders, every year since 2003 has been the same. This year's schedule suggests it won't be easy to break the cycle.
Snyder says team name isn't an issue, Halbritter disagrees
When it comes to the Redskins name, the two sides have become as entrenched as they can be. The question becomes whether enough folks who don't have an opinion — and enough of those who have an opinion but not a strong one — will ever swing one way or the other.
Until then, the team will continue to defend the name, and the opponents of the name will continue to challenge it.
On Tuesday, owner Daniel Snyder revisited the topic, from the perspective of the foundation that recently was created to assist Native American tribes.
"We understand the issues out there, and we're not an issue," Snyder said in rare public remarks, via the Associated Press. "The real issues are real-life issues, real-life needs, and I think it's time that people focus on reality."
Oneida Indian Nation Representative Ray Halbritter has responded to the remarks.
"If Dan Snyder thinks it is acceptable for a billionaire to market, promote, and profit off of a dictionary defined racial slur, then he's living in an alternate universe," Halbritter said in a press release. "If he wants to focus on reality, here's a reality check: The longer he insists on slurring Native Americans, the more damage he will keep doing to Native American communities, and the more he will become synonymous with infamous segregationist George Preston Marshall, who originally gave the team this offensive name."
The opposition to the team's name, which has lingered for more than 20 years, gained momentum in 2013, fueled in part by Snyder's aggressive "all caps NEVER" position on when the name will change. A high-stakes P.R. game has followed, with the Redskins spending plenty of money and effort to shape their message, and the opponents of the name spending plenty of money and effort to fight the name.
The issue will continue to percolate until the name changes, or until the opponents grow weary of the effort. It doesn't appear that either will happen any time soon.
NFL announces 30 players will attend the draft
More players than ever before will attend this year's NFL draft.
The league announced today that 30 prospects have confirmed they will attend, the most ever. That includes four quarterbacks — Blake Bortles (Central Florida), Teddy Bridgewater (Louisville), Jimmy Garoppolo (Eastern Illinois) and Johnny Manziel (Texas A&M) — as well as top prospects like South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, Buffalo linebacker Khalil Mack, Auburn tackle Greg Robinson and Clemson receiver Sammy Watkins. (It's a sign of the times that no running backs were among the 30 players invited.)
The other players confirmed to attend this year's NFL Draft: LSU receiver Odell Beckham, Alabama safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Oregon State receiver Brandin Cooks, Missouri defensive end Kony Ealy, North Carolina tight end Eric Ebron, Texas A&M receiver Mike Evans, Virginia Tech cornerback Kyle Fuller, Oklahoma State cornerback Justin Gilbert, Minnesota defensive tackle Ra'Shede Hageman, Florida State defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan, Alabama tackle Cyrus Kouandjio, Indiana receiver Cody Latimer, USC receiver Marqise Lee, Michigan tackle Taylor Lewan, Texas A&M tackle Jake Matthews, Vanderbilt receiver Jordan Matthews, Virginia tackle Morgan Moses, Alabama linebacker C.J. Mosley, Louisville safety Calvin Pryor, Ohio State cornerback Bradley Roby, Ohio State linebacker Ryan Shazier and Texas Christian cornerback Jason Verrett.
Bringing more players to the draft gives the NFL more opportunities to promote its stars of the future, but it also makes it more likely that several players will go through the awkward experience of remaining in the "green room" throughout the first round and into the second or third round. It's even possible that a player among the 30 invited could drop all the way to Day Three of the draft.
But most of the players invited will hear Roger Goodell call their names during the first round. And as the NFL continues to grow the draft into not just the league's biggest offseason event but one of the major parts of the sports year, more players than ever before will be there.
Kurt Coleman says he turned down better deals to sign with Vikings
Kurt Coleman thought Minnesota was the best place for him, even if the Vikings' offer wasn't the best one he received in free agency.
Coleman, a safety who signed with the Vikings last week, accepted a deal in Minnesota that pays a salary this year of $900,000, with nothing guaranteed. Coleman said both the Colts and the Jets offered him some guaranteed money, and that he got one offer with a higher base salary as well.
"But for me it was more important about finding the right opportunity and the right staff and an organization that believes in you," Coleman told the Pioneer Press. "And I think in the long term I'm betting on myself to succeed, and I think I will. The money wasn't there that I wanted, but that's OK because I know that it will come around. . . . It's about reasserting myself as a starter in this league and being a top performer as a safety."
Even though the Vikings' starting safeties from last season, Harrison Smith and Jamarca Sanford, are still in Minnesota this year, Coleman believes there's a better opportunity for him to have an impact in the Vikings' defense than there would have been anywhere else.
"Of course, I want to start," Coleman said. "I'm a competitor. I want to get out there and I want to start and I want to be the best player that I can be, and I think I have plenty more room to grow."
If Coleman grows into a player who can contribute to the Vikings' defense, then Minnesota got a great deal.
Lovie Smith praises his players for choosing to show up for voluntary work
NFL rules prohibit coaches from chastising players who choose not to show up for voluntary work. But the rules say nothing about praising those who do.
On the first day of a voluntary minicamp, two weeks after the offseason program launched, new Buccaneers coach Lovie Smith said that his new team has had perfect attendance in the offseason program, so far.
"Yes, everyone is here," Smith said. "Everyone has been here all offseason really and that's what you expect. It's voluntary work, but if you want to get better, why would you pass up an opportunity? I appreciate that from the team — again they want to do something. All you can do at this time in April is just show up each day and get better and they've done that."
The Bucs have a minicamp now because teams with new coaches are permitted to have an extra voluntary camp. Smith recognizes the value of that.
"I think it's a must," Smith said. "That's the good part about being a new staff, when you get this extra minicamp in. It's one thing to watch guys on video, but you want to see them on the football field to know in a lot of ways. Of course, we want to see our roster but, too, with the draft coming up, to see exactly what we need. Maybe we're not as strong or maybe we're a little scrawny at some of the positions. And that's what they'll tell us during these next two days.
"So I can't tell you how much it helps. And, for the team, they're wondering, 'What is it like? What's the practice routine? How are these guys going to coach?' And they know that now. So we've gotten a lot of those questions answered quickly."
We won't get answers about whether the Buccaneers are any better until September, when the real games start.
Rolando McClain added to reserve/retired list
Ravens linebacker Rolando McClain has been placed on the reserve/retired list, according to the NFL's Tuesday transaction log.
McClain told ESPN on Monday that he was ending his comeback attempt after a season away from football.
The Ravens signed the 24-year-old McClain last April, but the former Alabama star retired a little more than a month later. The Raiders' first-round pick in 2010, McClain started 38 games in three seasons with Oakland, but off-field issues and a dispute with coach Dennis Allen marred his tenure.
For the time being, the Ravens retain McClain's rights should he decide to return again to football.
Alex Smith talks going slowly, could pick up after the draft
Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith acknowledged on Tuesday that talks aimed at extending a contract that expires after the coming season are underway. And indeed they are.
But a source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that the discussions are moving very, very slowly.
The discussions could, and likely will, pick up after the draft. If/when an agreement is reached, look for the deal to have a value in the neighborhood of $14 million to $17 million per year. Which would be a very good contract for a guy who was the first pick in the 2005 draft and who was at times regarded as being a borderline bust.
Smith has busted out in a big way the last few years. While it feels like he's been around forever, Smith still isn't 30 years old.
That's true. I checked. Twice. He turns 30 on May 7.
And he's made plenty of money in the NFL over the last nine years. He could be making a lot more, soon.
Mark Ingram doesn't know if Saints will exercise 2015 option
The Saints had two first-round picks in 2011, leaving them with a pair of decisions to make about fifth-year contract options for the 2015 season.
They've already exercised defensive end Cam Jordan's option, guaranteeing that he'll be on the team for at least two more seasons. There's been no action in regard to running back Mark Ingram's contract and the back said Tuesday that he has no idea whether the team will do anything before the May 3 deadline to pick up the option.
"I'm not sure if they will pick up the fifth-year option," Ingram said, via the New Orleans Times-Picayune. "I'm just working one day at a time and I'm just glad I'm on a team that's a championship contender."
The base salary for Ingram in 2015 if his option is exercised would be just over $5.2 million, which is a hefty sum for a player who had just 85 touches last season while battling a toe injury and failed to run for four yards a carry in his first two seasons. Ingram should be in line for more with Darren Sproles out of the picture, but he'll still likely split time with Pierre Thomas and Khiry Robinson and that could mean that Ingram's 2015 fate will be determined by his performance on the field in 2014.
NFL will release schedule on Wednesday night
The long-awaited release of the NFL schedule will take place on Wednesday at 8 p.m. Eastern.
The schedule release will, of course, be accompanied by a special on NFL Network.
And, of course, NFL fans will obsess over it, because obsessing over the NFL during the offseason is America's second-most popular activity after obsessing over the NFL during the season. Even though we've known since the end of the 2013 season which teams are playing each other, we'll all talk about which games are on national television and which teams got their bye weeks at good times and when the big rivalry games are taking place.
At the same time that the schedule is being announced, an NBA playoff game between Mark Cuban's Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs will tip off. Cuban will not be happy if the NFL schedule gets more media attention than his team's playoff game. But given the status of the NFL as the fattest hog in sports, that wouldn't be surprising.
Brandon Boykin takes issue with Walter Thurmond calling himself best slot corner
Earlier on Tuesday, we passed along Giants cornerback Walter Thurmond's belief that he was the best slot corner in the NFL right now.
We weren't the only ones who took notice of Thurmond's assertion. Eagles cornerback Brandon Boykin, who spends most of his time in the slot, also noticed that Thurmond put himself at the top of the list. Boykin went on Twitter to register his disbelief.
But who is Walter Thurmond??—
Brandon Boykin (@BrandonBoykin2) April 22, 2014
Thurmond responded on Twitter, saying he "thinks it's funny" that Boykin would have issues with a comment about slot corners because Boykin "starts on the outside" and should have "higher aspirations." Boykin shot back to let Thurmond know he doesn't actually start on the outside, but he understood if Thurmond was confused by the stats Boykin compiled while playing the slot.
Boykin drew things to a close after that, but things could flare up again if memories of an argument between slot cornerbacks have enough staying power to make it to the first Eagles-Giants matchup of the season.

You'd think the Philadelphia Phillies had been there before.
Come to think of it, they have been in the exact spot they were Saturday night before. Four times before. The Phillies clinched the NL East title Saturday night -- their fifth consecutive division title, and they showed the rest of baseball why they are in prime position to be the favorite to return to the World Series for the first time in two years.Roy Oswalt shut down the Cardinals for seven innings, allowing no runs and just five hits, with seven strikeouts, as the Phillies fashioned a 3-0 lead. He nearly gave up a two-run homer to Yadier Molina in the top of the seventh, but Molina's ball bounced off the top of the wall right back to left fielder Raul Ibanez, and Molina was held to a single. Allen Craig, who was on first base, had to stop at third.
Phillies reliever Michael Stutes got into a bit of trouble in the eighth and the Cardinals cut the deficit to 3-2. But in the last of the eighth, the Phillies put on a power display. An error, three singles and a hit batsman gave Philadelphia two more runs and a 5-2 lead. Then, with the bases loaded, Octavio Dotel threw three straight cutters to Ibanez. The Phillies star put the third one into the seats in right field for the exclamation point on the victory, a grand slam that made the final score 9-2. (The loss also was a tough blow for the Cardinals, who fell 4-1/2 games behind the Braves for the NL wild card.)
When Ryan Madson got Rafael Furcal to ground out for the final out of the game, the Phillies had a low-key celebration on the field, high-fiving as if it were just another day at the office. The only real clue to the division title were the hugs given by players to each other and to the coaching staff.
The Phillies have one more magic number, and it seems inevitable: two more wins in their final 12 games will clinch home field throughout the NL playoffs. But with both the best home (52-23) and road (46-29) records in baseball, the Phillies will be tough to beat in the postseason no matter where they're playing.

LINCOLN — Thad Randle knows by now just about all the fundamentals and techniques and assignments that go with being a Nebraska defensive tackle.
And after taking a good look around him, he also understands the situation.
The Huskers badly need Randle to stay healthy and anchor their interior defensive line. They need his experience and maturity to bring stability to a position heavy with underclassmen.
And the senior realized all that long before the NU staff ever had to tell him.
"I know what the standard is," Randle said. "Now you've got to live up to it."
Randle and Brodrick Nickens, a walk-on and former offensive lineman, are the only seniors at defensive tackle. Randle and defensive end Jason Ankrah are the only scholarship seniors along the defensive front.
If his knees hold up, though, Randle is ready to put anyone and anything on his back for the next few months.
"I've been training for it since I knew I was going to have to be the guy," he said.
That has meant trying to go the extra step both on and off the field to set the right example for younger defensive tackles like Aaron Curry, Vincent Valentine, Maliek Collins and Kevin Maurice — any of whom could be playing behind or next to him this season.
In particular, Randle said, Collins has lots of questions. It reminds him of how he kept the queries coming to veterans like Jared Crick and Baker Steinkuhler when he was a newcomer.
|Join the conversation on the Big Red Today Facebook page.
"He wants to get better, so I don't have a problem helping anybody who wants to get better," Randle said. "You've got to be more of a coach to the younger guys, because when I was young the older guys were more of a coach to me."
All that's fine, but the biggest goal for Randle will be staying on the field.
The 6-foot-1, 290-pounder from Galena, Texas, has battled knee injuries throughout his Husker career, with the right knee twice needing surgery.
The trouble limited him to six games in 2011. It constantly nagged him last season, when he seemed to be getting helped off the field at some point almost every other week. It kept him out of spring practice this year.
"We knew it didn't feel good," Ankrah said. "For a guy to go through something like that and be able to still try and get in games last year … we know that he cares and we know that he wants to be out there, and we respect that."
Randle said the right knee still gets sore but said it feels better after the second surgery than it did after the first. The frequent stops in the training room during preseason camp are just part of the game.
NU defensive coordinator John Papuchis said Randle has been energetic and a leader through camp, helping to ease some concerns that only escalated when the Huskers recently lost potential starter Kevin Williams to a knee injury.
"Thad Randle has had a very good camp to this point," Papuchis said. "I think we can feel pretty solid that he's going to be lining up for us on Saturdays."
Randle contributed as best he could last season, when he played in 13 games (six starts) and finished with 21 tackles, two quarterback hurries and a fumble recovery.
The fact that he couldn't do more to help the defense only added to the frustration.
"I knew that I couldn't do what I wanted to do," Randle said. "I was just like, 'Dang, when am I going to get better?' But I just tried to stick it out the best I could."

great sounding, easy to work with kit. Loved the result but i think it would be cheaper considering that the cover it's not included
Still love those kits. I purchased almost every single one of them. But why starting to sell cover and pickup separately?
This is a great pickup kit. It's a bit difficult to put the magnets in the holes, but once you get in right it's really solid. Built a Tele neck pickup with plain enamel wire... Great sound, and this is only the second pickup I build!
Glad you have alnico 2 now...can order those from you now...pictured is a "los hermanos texicanos" set I built for an upgrade my brother's guitar shop is doing
This is a good kit and makes a nice sounding pickup, but the cover (brass) is a little cheap; a nickel silver cover would be better quality.
I don't think I could do better than stewmac has already done creating these accurate kits.
Absolutely awesome. Customers love these pickups, but it is hard to see how you could go wrong.

i did notice a lag (almostac ceptable, passable) using the brush tool , painting black and white on the maskes
i tried different video card from nvidia to ati , but did not find a real solution
the only solution is set the opengl off or set to basic
did you notice the same issue?
i did update all the drivers
The Smudge Tool seems slow in Photoshop CS6 because of an apparent bug where the code acts as though it has a zero or near-zero brush spacing and loops excessively, but I hadn't really noticed that normal brushing operations with the plain Brush Tool have a noticable lag or are particularly slow. However, I didn't do objective measurements before...
A while back I posted a thread on Ps Performance, in which I timed some operations done in Photoshop CS5. One of the operations (step 3) was to brush across a particular sized image with a particular sized brush. Since you brought this up, I just re-characterized both Photoshop CS5 and CS6 on my system as it currently is here with the same brush operations...
>3. Strokes with a round, soft brush with spacing at 10%
When the two applications were run one after the other, Photoshop CS6 64 bit did seem slightly slower to me, yet seemed to make more accurate strokes, as though the event queue was deeper, where it was overflowing and causing straight line strokes in Photoshop CS5.
Dragging a big 2500 pixel brush from corner to corner in a 10000 x 8000 x 16 bits/channel image took 5.6 seconds to catch up in Photoshop CS6, and 3.0 seconds in Photoshop CS5, so this seems to confirm that Ps CS6 is a bit slower with a standard brush. But interestingly the deeper queue and better stroke tracking definitely make it more usable in Photoshop CS6. If you're willing to wait for it to catch up, you can paint smooth curves freehand even with a 2500 pixel brush in CS6.
Interestingly, with the Mixer Brush, the same exercise with a 300 pixel bristle brush on default settings seemed to place Photoshop CS5 and CS6 on just about an equal footing. Performance seemed about the same, or maybe even slightly faster in Photoshop CS6, and again the brush strokes track mouse movement more truly and completely in Photoshop CS6, making the Mixer Brush definitely more usable.
If you have an adequate video card there should be no lag. With CS6 some changes were made so now some of the functions rely on a new Mecury graphics engine. This may take a little more horsepower and latest drivers.
From a CS6 posting
Tested video cards for Photoshop CS6
Adobe tested the following video cards before the release of Photoshop CS6. This document lists the video card by series. The minimum amount of RAM supported on video cards for Photoshop CS6 is 256 MB.
Note: Adobe tested laptop and desktop versions of the following cards. Be sure to download the latest driver for your specific model. (Laptop and desktop versions have slightly different names.)
nVidia GeForce 8000, 9000, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 series
nVidia Quadro 400, 600, 2000, 4000 (Mac & Win), CX, 5000, 6000
AMD/ATI Radeon 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000 series
AMD/ATI FirePro 3800, 4800, 5800, 7800, 8800, 9800, 3900, 4900, 5900, 7900
Intel Intel HD Graphics, Intel HD Graphics P3000, Intel HD Graphics P4000
Note: ATI X1000 series and nVidia 7000 series cards are no longer being tested and are not officially supported in CS6 – some basic GL functionality may be available for both these cards.
Curt, I have a supported card (ATI Radeon HD 5670) and everything GPU-oriented is turned on and working. The use of the GPU for actual brush painting operations seems to be no different than it was in Photoshop CS5.
It seems you can always get lag if you make a brush big enough. I'd certainly like to hear from someone for whom that's not the case. Only more powerful CPUs seem to make brush painting operations faster. People with the latest i7s, for example, like Trevor find that painting is more interactive.
Noel, I am not the expert you are in these matters, not even sure how to test the lag.
I did open a 6500 x 6200 pixel document in both CS5 and CS6. There I used a 500,1500 and 2500 brush sizem 0 hardness. Just looking at it they seem the same but the hard brush was a little faster.
When you advance the brush the larger the brush the longer it takes to fill the circle, but seems to be same on both programs.
I have an ATI HD 5450 card 8 gigs of RAM and an i7 CPU, about 2 years old.
Curt Y wrote:
seems to be same on both programs.
Exactly. It took dragging a huge brush across a giant document and timing with a stopwatch to detect the difference.
Thus my conclusion is that the Mercury graphics engine either isn't accelerating plain old brush painting, or it has been (without being named as such) since Photoshop CS5.
hi, do you have anymore details on the smudge bug, or if it'll be fixed soon- it's a tool i use extensively, and it's behaviour in cs6 is pretty disappointing?
I found a fix for this problem.
Found this on Youtube.
Follow the video.
I didnt , i just went to this link http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=4056 and downloaded the zip file and used all registry entries. Works like a charm now. No lag whatsoever , in Advanced mode.
P.S - i know it says CS5 on the video and CS4 on the adobe link but it works with CS4 , CS5 and CS6 as well .

A look at the executables in the Photoshop installation area reveals they were updated in mid-March, so virtually none of the problems reported during the public beta are going to have been fixed.

What do you mean, exactly?
That zip file has 4 different registry files in it, some of which do the exact opposite of others. You didn't apply them all did you? And they apply ONLY to Photoshop CS4. You are wrong if you think otherwise.
Chances are all you've done is disable Photoshop CS4 from using your Graphics Processor entirely - something you likely could have done just as well by going into Preferences - Performance and unchecking [ ] Use OpenGL. Now you'll be working without using any GPU acceleration, which may have worked around a driver bug (that you could have fixed another way) but is also going to prevent you from using some very nice features of Photoshop.
You really need to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
You used *ALL* of the registry entries?
You just created one huge mess if you did.
i infact did use them all , but it seems to be fixed now. Also unchecking OpenGL didnt help but these did . I definitely do not know what the reg entries do but as long as photoshop works well.
I made a mess? Well should i reinstall or remove the reg entries?
Okay so how do i fix this then cause hardware cannot be the problem , my system - i7 2600k , 16GB ram , ATI HD6950 2 GB. So what else can be the problem?
yes but in the zip there are 4 files
• DisallowOpenGLWindows_ON_D.reg
• DisallowOpenGLWindows_OFF.reg
• AllowOldGPUS_ON.reg
• AllowOldGPUS_OFF_D.reg
which did you run ?
because 2 turn on and the other turn Off
Kasondroid wrote:

Exactly my point.
The specific registry files you downloaded at the exact link you posted above can affect only Photoshop CS4. If you don't have Photoshop CS4 they're doing nothing for you, and you probably need not do anything to undo what you've done (unless you want to run Photoshop CS4 some day).
If you saw something get better, it was a coincidence.
I realize you were trying to be helpful up above, but posting bogus info isn't helpful. It just serves to mislead people and waste their time.
I am sorry for my post then , i noticed it help someone with CS5 thought it'd work the same here.
So no fix for now eh?

ah, thanks...but dang.
looks like i'll hop on at 6.1 then
I'm guessing they'll be fixed in a 13.0.1 update. That will likely still be Photoshop CS6.
Thanks! and sorry again.
im having same problem..
mouse feels slow compared to cs5 and only when graphic processor is on, all settings same.
and i just noticed when opening the liquify, then the mouse is laggy and slow but when holding down the button to liquify the later its smooth and normalt,
whats wrong there O.o?.
If it's actually faster when the GPU is disabled, then you definitely have some kind of unexpected display driver issue.
Does everyone with this issue have nVidia? Perhaps it would be good to start listing video card model and driver version in posts in this thread.
I can confirm it's NOT happening with ATI Radeon HD 5670 and Catalyst 12.2 driver package.
Just ran the same test as you using the Standard Brush and I am seeing zero lag with the same size test image you used. I am using an i7 machine, 16GB RAM with the Intel Graphics P4000 card with the latest drivers with GPU enabled. Using the Blur tool I do see a noticeable lag using the Smudge and Blur tools. With the Blur tool far being the worst offender
Not sure if this helps, but another data point
Update: with a 900 px blur setting, it actually caused Pshop to go into a non-responsive state and had to force a close (first for me on CS6) but when I opened CS6, the test image recovered, whooo, so proved that auto recovery works
Funny thing is although Photoshop hung, it was nowhere maxed out on any resources, normal memory utilization, CPU's averaging 21%
my specs:
Motherboard: Asrock Fatality P67 Performance
Cpu: Intel Core i7 2600k 3.4 Ghz
Graphic Card: Nvidia Geforce GTX 460 OC
Ram: 6.0GB

ooops. Not intuitively obvious here. Lets try this as attachment....
First time poster, long time site reader. You all do a great job here. Good reference information for us DIY types, in keeping everybody safe and within established standards. Thanks for that!!
I am in the process of moving my washer and utility sink to another wall in the basement. The current washer and utility sink connections are in the basement concrete floor and the washer drains by backfilling through the utility sink drain and then gravity draining (due to no venting, I assume).
My design has the utility sink and washer moved to the same wall where a 3" copper DWV is. This DWV services a 1st floor bathroom toilet, shower, and sink only. I have had 2 plumbers look at connecting into the 3" copper DWV and both said in can be done. That said, I have a few questions as I have never done this, although I am an avid DIY type that has taken on multiple projects and am determined to 'do it right'.
The questions are as follows:
(1) Any glaring problems with this design (attached drawing)?
(2) What is the best way to cut 3" copper DWV? hacksaw, sawsall, etc?
Further information.
- The total distance from the DWV to the utility sink is 2.5ft and the washer drain is 5'. Would a need exist for a vent at all here?
- The main sewer drain to the street is directly below the 3" DWV, so does this influence the desing in any way?
Thank you for your time.
ooops. Not intuitively obvious here. Lets try this as attachment....
When I have to cut into a line that is in place already, I use a sawzall.
I usually put a hose clamp around the pipe with the edge of it where I need the cut, and I use the hose clamp to guide the blade. Even in awkward positions, I can still get a perfectly square clean cut.
From what you have stated, the 3" line is a drain for fixtures on the floor above. This means that it cannot be used as a vent. Your basement plumbing needs a dry vent going up through the roof. Alternatively, a new vent could be connected to the existing stack, but the connection would have to made at least 6" above the flood rim of the highest fixture draining into the stack.
You will need to vent both the washer and the sink, and not by using the nearby waste stack.
The two vents can combine at 42" above the floor, and then either go through the roof, or to a vent on the "next" floor at 42" above that floor.
The pipes above the santee are all vents. The wast line goes through the floor.

Thank you for the quick responses.
Other than venting changes that have been stated, the design and fixtures used generated no cautionary responses, so I assume they are within guidelines established.
One other question here...what is the best way to permanently seal the current washer and utility sink drains after the lines have been cut flush with the concrete floor? I am thinking to go the route of stuffing a rag or something partially into the drainline and filling with a hydraulic cement. Any preferred method here?
Thanks again.
Now that Ive been thinking about this venting issue I have an additional question, but which needs further background information regarding this houses design...
To the left of the referenced DWV vent is a basement bathroom, which has a sink, toilet, and shower. This space is separated by a wood framed wall. All the bathroom fixtures are against a center concrete block support wall, which supports the floor joists of the first and second floors (it is a cape cod style home built in the 60's). In the rear of the house there is another 3" DWV which services the kitchen and 2nd floor bathroom. I assume then that this drain line then connects under the basement concrete floor with the first DWV I referenced and proceeds to the street sewer line.
I was laying insulation in the front of the attic awhile back and noticed a copper 3" line coming up from the first floor bath to the roof and am sure this is the vent line to the first floor bathroom fixtures. My assumption regarding the second DWV in the rear of the house is that it runs also to the roof to provide venting for the 2nd floor bathroom fixtures.
Whew. So, my question is how the basement bathroom, which looks to be original to the house (no concrete repairs in the floors that I have seen), was allowed to pass inspection in the first place if no basement venting was used? Could the basement bathroom be using what I have read as a 'wet vent' system through the existing DWV's? (I don't believe they ran a vent line through the concrete block and connected to the first floor bathroom vent line). There are no slow-drain issues with this bath either!?
Thanks again for all the assistance.
It is not permitted to wet vent between floors. The existing bath would have been required to have venting. If it does not, it was probably not inspected, as there has never been a bath built to code that does not have any venting. Sometimes inspectors overlook things, as do us all.
Cutting the pipe flush with the floor means you could never properly seal it up, if you really insist upon it, I'm sure you could fill them w/ concrete if feel it comfortable doing it.
Well, my only explanation to this then is I guess it was missed. In order to fix this I would require a 3" vent for the toilet according to what I've read. Then, since there is a bath/shower and sink these could be attached to the toilet 3" vent and then connected into the existing 3" vent for the 1st floor bath (or run a new vent alltogether). A 3" vent would be more than enough according to the d.f.u requirements I have read about. In addition, the washer and utility sink could be routed into this new vent also.
No wonder when a simple project becomes very complicated to people take the easiest route, as the alternative can be very painful, both from a cost and work standpoint. No faults here, its what I 'inherited' when I became the homeowner.
An interim soultion would then be to route a separate 1 1/2" vent line strictly for the utility sink and washer and at a later date (when/if the first floor bath is upgraded) correct the basement bathroom issues. The downside here is if I dont do it and wind up selling the property later, the next homeowner would not know to do this, potentially even if 'professionals' are brought in, as they are only looking at upgrading the 1st floor bath.
This is a prime example as to why things are the way they are with houses these days.
Thanks again.
can of worms....
Can you recommend a better/more satisfactory solution to this problem? I plan on covering the drain eventually with some type of engineered flooring and would prefer it not stick through the floor. But, I do not want potential seeping/leak issues at a later date if I have a backup in the main drain, as this point could potentially be a 'weak' one if not properly handled. Concrete was the only option I thought of, although this does 'shrink' and that would also be a potential problem.
Just had another 'moment' concerning this vent issue....
Vents are to require air flow AFTER a p-trap (from what I have read/seen), so the only possible explanation to the exisiting plumbing is that the original 3" DWV referenced is providing both the vent for the basement bathroom. Then, the only logical solution is to vent next to the original 3" DWV and run a new vent line. I could only ASS-U-ME here that, at the time, the reasoning was that since this 3" DWV is way more than adequate to service the 3 fixtures in the 1st floor bathroom that back then (think 1960s) it was sufficient to also provide venting services to the basement bath. Any old timers (my age) that can enlighten here??
You'll likely need to chip away some concrete around the line itself, and install a cleanout cap/fitting, and then patch the concrete around the line.
My initial though after reading as much of the above postings as I could take, is that you are out of your "comfort zone", and may be "exceeding your level of incomptence". In your original drawing, the sink is NOT vented and you cannot tie the vent back into the drain line. As far as existing vents are concerned, you apparently do not know what you have and we cannot tell you HOW you can vent the new washer/sink location.
Licensed residential and commercial plumber
I would guess that the existing plumbing hidden in the walls is in fact plumbed properly. Just because you see one or two vents through the roof, that doesn't tell you what the plumber has done in the walls.
Here is a drawing showing two bathrooms stacked with only one vent. Does seeing one vent through the roof tell you anything?

Q: Is Aurelio's Pizza moving to Coastland Center mall, and, if so, do you know when?
— Sue L., Naples
A: Aurelio's Pizza is planning to open during the week of Dec. 3, in time to provide a culinary respite to holiday shoppers at Coastland Center.
But when Aurelio's opens in the former location of Ted's Montana Grill and Pate's House of Prime Rib at the mall, the franchise is not exactly moving. Naples is Seconds City when it comes to Second City cuisine. The future and former Aurelio's pizzerias have found a way to co-exist in Naples just one mile apart from each other.
Aurelio's at the mall is a new franchise of the Chicago chain being opened by a new franchisee in Naples. This marks the return of Aurelio's to the local market.
After hosting an Aurelio's franchise for more than 15 years, Collier County has been without the popular pizzeria since June 19. That's the date longtime franchisees John and Nancy Stewart severed ties with the chain and created their own Chicago-influenced restaurant — Sweet Home Chicago Pub & Grub — in the same local location on U.S. 41.
The change didn't sit well with Aurelio's Is Pizza Franchise Inc. The Chicago restaurant company immediately sued the Stewarts, choosing to enforce the non-compete clause the couple had signed as part of their franchise agreement. The non-compete clause prevented the former franchisees from operating a pizzeria for two years within five miles of the downtown location.
In August, attorneys for both parties came to an agreement and the case was settled. A permanent injunction outlines stipulations for the Stewarts, licensed under the name JNJC-Food Inc., until June 18, 2014, the date the non-compete clause ends.
When Sweet Home Chicago Pub & Grub opened June 23, two pages of pizza selections, both Chicago thin-crust and deep-dish options, made up nearly half of the restaurant's menu. Since then, the pizza options have been scaled back considerably and can be no more than 15 percent of the menu, per the written order.
"We certainly would have preferred a different outcome, obviously, but it gives us an opportunity to do something with our menu that we didn't do before," John Stewart said.
Aurelio's and JNJC agreed not to defame or disparage each other or each other's products. Until June 2014, Sweet Home Chicago also cannot:
■ Refer to its restaurant as a "pizzeria" or "pizzeria restaurant."
■ Cut its pizza into any shape other than triangular, pie-shaped. In other words, cutting pizza into traditional Chicago squares is prohibited.
■ Sell any specialty pizzas or list any specialty pizzas on its menu. The restaurant may provide only a list of possible ingredients for its pizzas, but not required ingredient combinations.
■ Sell and list pizzas on the main portion of its menu that are any sizes other than 12 inches and 16 inches. However, 7-inch pizzas may be sold on the kid's menu portion, and 9-inch gluten-free and 10inch deep-dish pizzas also may be sold.
■ Use or disseminate Aurelio's recipes for pizza sauce, dough, Italian salad dressing, spaghetti sauce and meatballs, or claim it uses these recipes.
After the agreement, Stewart said he is pleased with the way business is going at Sweet Home Chicago. The old venue has added new salads, sandwiches and pasta dishes.
"We've been able to do some creative things which have been in our best interest, and come up with a whole new restaurant, and still operate the restaurant with a Chicago theme, which has a lot of interest down here," he said.
Of course, the Aurelio's corporation is well aware of the Chicago interest here. Transplants and visitors made the original Aurelio's location in Naples one of the top performers of the chain's more than 40 locations, most of which are in the Chicago area.
Although it is franchised by the same Aurelio's company, the new mall restaurant has nothing to do with this summer's legal showdown. The new local franchise operators are father and son Ross and Andrew Barnard, who have operated an Aurelio's franchise in LaGrange, Ill., for many years.
In addition to a larger venue, the new Aurelio's now will deliver and have more parking. The new Aurelio's even took over the old location's telephone number.
"The phone is ringing off the hook," Ross Barnard said. "I could have booked 20 parties here already."
■ Bha! Bha! Persian Bistro opened in its new location Nov. 5 on Fifth Avenue South in downtown Naples. Before closing in April, Bha! Bha! operated in The Pavilion shopping center in North Naples for 15 years.
"We're opened and ready," said Michael Mir, the owner and executive chef. He said the restaurant initially had a soft opening with only a portion of its menu until Saturday.
The new Bha! Bha! at 865 Fifth Ave. S. includes a full bar, outdoor dining and about 95 percent of the old menu, Mir said. The restaurant is open for dinner every day from 5 to 10 p.m.
Information: 239-594-5557; www.bhabhabistro.com
■ Parmesan Pete's Italian Kitchen recently relocated to North Naples during the first week of November after operating for about two years in Bonita Springs. The new location opened for dinner Saturday and Sunday, and first added lunch to the lineup on Monday. Chef-owner Peter Della Rocca closed his original location on Bonita Beach Road to move into the former location of Anthony's Trattoria in Fountain Park, 7935 Airport- Pulling Road, on the southwest corner of Vanderbilt Beach Road.
Parmesan Pete's is open every day, 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. for lunch, and 4:30 to 9 p.m. for dinner. 239-992-3663.
■ Pollo Tropical, best known for its marinated and grilled chicken, is preparing to open a new location next year in Gulf Coast Town Center. The Miami-based restaurant chain recently purchased an undeveloped outparcel next to McDonald's at the regional mall for $1 million, Lee County property records show.
Pollo Tropical's new location probably won't open until the summer or fall of 2013, said Ashleigh Henry, a spokeswoman for Gulf Coast Town Center.
There's an "Everglades Pizza" — topped with swamp cabbage, frog legs, alligator sausage, and even python — in Fort Myers, but are there other unusual pies in other Southwest Florida pizzerias?
What's the most unusual pizza or pizza topping you've seen on a menu here?
Tell us about it. We're doing a story on unique pizzas and pizza toppings and would like to hear where they're being served in Southwest Florida. Please send us:
■ your description of the pizza and the name, if it has one
■ whether you actually tried it
■ your name and the city from which you're writing
Email your observations to email@example.com. Place in the subject line the words "Unusual pizza."
We'll print the results in a future Wednesday edition of Neapolitan.
Have a local question? Email it with your name and city of residence to email@example.com.

To beep or not to beep, seems to be more than a question. The beep makes couponers tremble and probably irritates cashiers.
If you have read a coupon, matched it up with an item and then heard the "oh-so-wonderful" beep at the register, you know what I'm talking about. There are legitimate coupons that will beep, as well as some that will not beep when used on items not intended for that coupon.
With coupons, you can't always rely on the barcode, which is the root of why a coupon beeps or doesn't beep. You have to go with the wording on the coupon. Not the picture, mind you, but the wording.
If a coupon states, "Not for trial or travel sizes," but someone tells you that it won't beep, do not use it.
If a coupon states a specific item but you learn it doesn't beep on an item not intended for the coupon, do not use it.
On the flip side, if you follow the wording and you have the correct product, correct size, etc, it may beep. Make sure you and the cashier read it and match it up with the product. If you are both unsure, ask for manager approval. The store has the right to refuse the coupon if it beeps, but, kindly ask for approval if you know it is correct.
A coupon will also beep if the item purchased is less than the coupon value. If you purchase a product that is $1 and the coupon is for $2 off the item, it will beep. Most stores will value down the coupon, which is a source of debate among couponers because the manufacturer will reimburse the store for the full value of the coupon, plus eight cents.
According to the coupon policy at Wal-Mart, the company gives the consumer full value of the coupon amount and allows the overage to go towards other purchases. The coupon will beep and the cashier has to verify the amount.

Lakeside to host 'Holly Jolly Christmas'
Citizen Staff Reports 11/05/12
Nearly three dozen Lakeside Avenue merchants will host the eighth annual Holly Jolly Christmas event Nov. 9-10, providing local shoppers with a signature kick-off event. Shoppers will be able to take free trolley rides to and from shops along the avenue from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Nov. 9 and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Nov. 10.

A fun, fuzzy ride
'Muppets Most Wanted' worthy of its franchise
Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Bridgewater should cast aside its divisive mentality
Loy Wilkinson, Bridgewater
First Selectman William T. Stuart is a polarizing figure in Bridgewater. All residents agree on that. For years, he has used polarization to enhance his political career.

Root Named Preseason Defensive Player of the Year
Friday, August 17, 2012
Two-time Horizon League Defensive Player of the Year Taylor Root (Jenison, Mich./Jenison) has been named the league's Preseason Defensive Player of the Year and one of seven athletes on the Preseason All-League squad, as voted on by the league's eight head coaches and released by the league office this morning.
Root enters the 2012 campaign as the Horizon League's all-time digs leader, having tallied 2,017 career digs through her first three seasons. The two-time Honorable Mention All-American sits less than 300 digs away from the top spot on Valpo's career chart in the category as well. Through three years, Root has already broken the league record for Player of the Week awards with eight weekly honors from the league office and has earned All-League honors in each of her three seasons.
Root and the Crusaders open the 2012 season in Iowa City, Iowa on Friday, August 24 at the Hawkeye Challenge, taking on Southeast Missouri State and Chicago State on the first day of action.

Great alternatives: Daum´s PotPlayer, VLC or Media Player Classic Home Cinema.

Still the worst player EVER.
Such a piece of crap, it requires adobe flash player for mp4 and h.264 videos. No FLAC audio, MKV, or OGG support. No external subtitle support of any kind without installing additional software.
Do yourself a favor and get The KMPlayer, Daum´s PotPlayer, VLC or Media Player Classic Home Cinema. Any of those are WAY more capable to PLAY all your video and audio files with strong support for .srt external subtitles, all of them are a lot lighter than RealCrap player and don´t spy on you or constantly show you ads.
Not even the BBC uses it anymore: "The streaming service provided in RealMedia format has been with us at the BBC since 1996. At the time it was the best option available, but more recently alternative methods of delivery have become just as important. These include Windows Media and Flash.
When evaluating services with our public value tests, which includes the costs of the services, we came to the decision that RealMedia was something we needed to phase out."

Bosch recently released the GTS1031, a more portable version of its model 4100 10-inch work-site table saw.

A metal roll cage around the motor and trunnions allows you to store the saw on edge. Its 18-rip capacity is less than that of a full-size model but more than enough for the majority of cuts made on site. ¦ Price: $400 for the saw and $80 for the optional folding work stand. 877-267-2499. www.boschtools.com.

They are proctoscopic tools most recently used on an elephant that has been grazing near a natural oil seep.
These were in my garage when I bought the house and I'm wondering if anyone has any idea what they are?
Each piece is the same. They appear to be 3" conduit, threaded on the ends, each one being about 8' long. There is a 90 degree pull corner elbow with an 18" section of EMT attached to each one not far from center. There are holes drilled in rows on the unpainted ends. Also note the eye bolts threaded in about a foot above each elbow. Inside one of the sections I found the 2 steel rods that are also shown.
It's a mystery to me, but I can't bring myself to throw them out until I at least know what they are for. Any ideas??
They are proctoscopic tools most recently used on an elephant that has been grazing near a natural oil seep.
I am going to guess someone was building volleyball/badmitton net posts.
The eye hooks were for the bottom of the net and the small conduit/pulling ell was for wiring to lights that were to be attached to the tops.
There should be eye bolts on the top of the pole unless they are on another piece which holds the lights also.
That's all I got.
